Wheatgrass powder is a dietary supplement obtained from extracting the dehydrated juice of wheatgrass. It is prepared from the grass grown naturally on the field for three or more months before being dehydrated.

The primary reason for the numerous health benefits of this powder is its concentrated chlorophyll content (about 70%) in addition to the 98 of 102 earth elements it contains, including calcium, iron, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium. It also contains essential enzymes. Chlorophyll is touted to be the blood of the plants; and when consumed by humans, it helps reverse aging, suppress hunger, combat odor, cleanse the blood, and even prevent cancer.

The best part is that unlike wheat, this supplement is gluten-free. Each tablespoon contains only 18 calories. Wheatgrass powder can be mixed in water to make a nutritional drink or it can even be added to juices and smoothies. It contains all the properties of the wheatgrass plant, including nutrients, vitamins, and minerals – and, that too, in balanced proportions.

Without much ado, let’s quickly look at what are the benefits of wheatgrass powder for your skin, hair and health.
